Four, count them, four interviews tomorrow. 10:00AM through 3:00PM. Luckily, two of them are for a single position and the other two are literally right down the street from each other.

Pretty much the same types of positions, just involving more stuff. And one oddball, left field one revolving around stock ticker software. And every single one of them pays more than what I make now, like a LOT more.

OK, I need interview tips. I haven't gone into one for a long time, and that one ended badly. I have already laid off the bong hits, don't plan on getting PSX'd before going in, so anything anyone wanna impart some suggestions before I sell my soul?

stress that you are willing to learn new tasks and take on new objectives... a flexible worker is one companies want to hire... I always do my best to show all aspects of what I can offer and I usually provide a portfolio as well of achievements or projects that I've completed or contributed to my previous jobs. And of course be friendly and make a good impression as a person not just as a tech!

We were just talking about this the other day in another forum I frequent, dslreports.com. They recently had a data breech and someone slurped the database of userIDs and passwords. One guy was screaming about lawsuits and needing identity protection and so forth.

My actual name doesn't ever show up linked to my online persona, so there isn't anything to protect. Where my real name is used, it's very professional and sparse, It also helps that it's flooded by links to someone else with my name, a relatively notable doctor.

As a matter of fact, the only company that has a link to both my real name and my online persona is Spiceworks. Shit, I better stop posting bad things, lest Nic decides to make an example of me. :-)

+1 to part second part...tatoos your choice.I try to think of Interviews as product sale and just tell them why they need this product and what it can do for them. Go get'em and sell yourself for money....wait I feel a little dirty now.

congrats, but stay sober this week so you look half way decent! lol! You will do great - you have the confidence and carisma down, so you will probably end up with having the painful task of choosing which offer you want - congrats on the more money as well -

I was thinking, since you might get several job offers, try this:

Once you get the offers in writing, immediately quit your job. Accept the offer on the first job that you like the most, go to work there for a week. If it pans out, great, stay there. If it is horrible, accept the offer on the second job, and so on.... If anyone could pull that off, it would be you.

That's just nasty :D

Congrats PSX.

Don't fudge details, especially when it comes to projects/abilities/skills. Lots of people get nailed for that. Be polite & respectful but don't cover who you are too hard.

For example - don't swear but don't try talking like a lit. professor either. If they pick up on it a lot of people take offence to what they see as deceit.
